Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will publish regional allocations of the £500million winter adult social care discharge fund.
On 22 September 2022, the Government launched the Adult Social Care Discharge Fund which provides an additional £500 million to accelerate the safe discharge of patients from hospital into social care and recruit and retain care workers to support people who no longer need to be in hospital. The details of the fund, including local allocations, are being finalised, and will be published shortly.
